1967 Ferrari 330 GTS Vanished from the Public Eye for Five Decades
This 1967 Ferrari 330 GTS is an extremely original matching numbers example just out of 50 year ownership. Its been tucked away and hidden from the public eye for five decades. It may very well be the last unknown 330 GTS in existence. Red with tan leather interior. A preservation class car that would benefit from mechanical commissioning at this time. In 1969, the recently married previous owner picked up a Road and Track magazine and saw a 330 GTS advertised in Milan, Italy. She asked her husband to go to Italy to buy the car as a honeymoon gift to which he agreed and they imported the car back to the United States. In the early 1970s, she parked the car in their California garage and left it alone hidden away from the rest of the world. As the saying goes, it is only original once. This is the most honest and original 330 GTS one will ever find.
The 330 GTS was designed with the intention of providing Ferrari?s best customers with the finest open-top motoring experience that money could buy. Fast, elegant, and practical, the 330 GTS left its lucky owners wanting for nothing and solidified Ferrari?s reputation as the finest builder of grand touring cars. The Colombo-designed V-12 powerplant displaced four liters and was fed by three triple-choke Weber DCZ/6 carburetors. Period tests found the mill capable of 300 horsepower at 7,000 rpm and 244 pound-feet of torque at 5,000 rpm. The increased power enabled a 0-60 mph sprint of around six seconds and a top speed approaching 150 mph. Only 99 examples were built when production concluded in late 1968 compared to nearly 600 coupe versions, making it considerably rarer than its closed counterpart. This Ferrari 330 GTS is one of our most significant discoveries.
